Our mission

The mission of Ukrainian-Austrian Association is to foster the civil
society relations between Austria and Ukraine and to promote in Austria the success
of transformation already achieved in Ukraine, and hence to improve the perception
and image of Ukraine in Austria. Besides UAA will develop initiatives and projects in the social,
cultural, business and civil society field with the overall objective to broaden and strengthen
ties and cooperation between Austria and Ukraine. As far as its focus on business is concerned,
Ukrainian-Austrian Association is striving to establish and intensify B2B relations
with the aim to attract further investment and to promote bilateral projects.

Gaps in mentality between Ukrainians and Austrians (and, in general, Western Europeans)
can still be widely observed. They are often hampering development of basically promising
joint business. Hence Ukrainian-Austrian Association is offering assistance and training
with regard to inter-cultural relations and management on university level and,
in cooperation with the Ukrainian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, to Ukrainian
companies concerning their proposals for international projects, the latter including
training with regard to state-of-the-art professional standard in projects.

To facilitate achieving of such goals Ukrainian-Austrian Association
is seeking cooperation and reconciliation with civil, political,
business and cultural institutions of both countries.
We are organizing Ukrainian-Austrian events and are contributing to forums,
conferences, congresses and events in the above fields.

Starting December 2017 UAA is the Austrian
member of ICBAC (International Council of Business Associations and Chambers of Commerce)
together with the bilateral associations and chambers representing USA, the UK,
Germany, France, Turkey, China and Ukraine.
